Subcooling and Superheating Definition
Definition of Subcooling Subcooling refers to a liquid whose temperature is lower than its saturation point. Process of Subcooling Subcooling and condensation occur in the condenser. The use of subcooling is for transferring refrigerant from the condenser to the thermostatic expansion valve in liquid form. Mechanism of Refrigeration Systems The refrigerant absorbs heat and releases it to the environment after leaving the compressor and reaching the condenser. The temperature decreases in the condenser, and the refrigerant transitions to the liquid phase. Advantages of Subcooling Increased...
